.It's come to my attention that a few acquaintances of mine tried to join our forum but were unable toeither log-in or create a new account using olderversions of FireFox and Tiger(10.4?) on older Macs that can no longer be updated.

Both dumped their Forum Cookies but not the cache,Opera and Firefox are a No-Go, but one member was able to finally sign in using Safari.

They were also not able to retrieve New/TemporaryPasswords using newer e-mail addresses.

Is there a known issue using older versions ofeveryone's favorite (default) Browser?

Or is it perhaps blocked as part of our SPAM FILTER?

...or...?

Can you please advise or help?

Exactly what happened? That's a little vague. Error messages etc? Did they receive an email reset link or did it error out when requesting a new password?

When I attempt to sign in with last known account name and password I get the message User name not known.. So if I try and register the same name or any name .. all that changes when the page reloads is that it highlights whatever username I try and register in a red box. Nothing else.. no explanations, messages or emails.
